3.6.5 Recommended Heatsinks for Slot A Processors

The recommended heatsinks for the Slot A processors are those with three-pin fans, such as the ASUS Smart Fan, that can be connected to the motherboard’s CPU fan connector. These heatsinks dissipate heat more efficiently and with an optional hardware monitor, they can monitor the fan’s RPM and use the alert function with the Intel LANDesk Client Manager (LDCM) or the ASUS PC Probe software.
